“HUNGER STRIKING FOR TRUE FREEDOM TOUR” LAUNCHES IN LOS ANGELES WITH STRIKE SOUNDTRACK LISTENING PARTY & “5 MICS” EXPERIENCE FEATURING RAS KASS, ARTIVIST KADRE, & DJ PSYCHO LES

Los Angeles, CA — A new wave of art, activism, and music is rising from the streets of Los Angeles as K.A.G.E. Universal, California Prison Focus, and ARTIVIST HOUSE announce the launch of the Hunger Striking ForTrue Freedom Tour, an explosive convergence of Hip Hop, culture, and social justice.

Kicking off Third Thursday in the heart of LA, the event features:

• Exclusive Strike Soundtrack Listening Party

• Truth Be Told: The Dark Side of Gentrification 2 screening

• 5 MICS with Ras Kass & Artivist Kadre — uniting Bay & LA Hip Hop chapters

• Special guest DJ Psycho Les (Beatnuts / Real Psycho)

• Resident DJs Fatlip (Pharcyde), Brad Rush, and Marcus the Artist

This isn’t just a party—it’s a movement. Designed to build bridges between generations, coasts, and cultures, 5 MICS celebrates excellence in Hip Hop without glorifying materialism. A tribute to tradition, innovation, and equity—this is where resistance meets rhythm.

Sponsorship and tiered buy-in opportunities allow for community members and organizations to become part of the solution through the ArtivistKadre Tier Action Items (Tiers 1–5). Proceeds support prison reform, women’s rights, racial equity, and reentry programs.

Join Us. Third Thursdays. Every Month.

Respect the roots. Move the culture.
